AllNursingSchools.com Launches Comprehensive Directory of Nursing Schools
September 24, 2001 (Seattle, WA) - All Star Directories, Inc. today announced the launch of All Nursing Schools, a web site dedicated to connecting prospective nursing students with the right nursing schools. The site features a comprehensive directory of U.S. nursing programs, as well as a thorough guide to careers and education alternatives in the nursing field. Visitors to the site at www.allnursingschools.com can:
- Step through the comprehensive Question and Answer guide to nursing
- Search through thousands of nursing programs by geography, name, or specialty
- Review detailed fact sheets with information provided by featured schools
- And send admissions information requests directly to schools for follow up
All Star Directories founder and President Mike Mathieu, a former Microsoft executive, hatched the idea last spring while reading about National Nurses Week and the nursing shortage. "I was surprised to find that the world-class techniques we had developed at Microsoft were not being widely used in the education market," Mathieu said. "So we launched the site with the goal of creating the most cost-effective recruiting solution for nursing schools, and we're off to a great start."
During the two weeks of its pre-launch activities, the web site attracted more than 10,000 prospective nurses to the site, who read detailed fact sheets about nursing schools and programs, and sent nearly 1,000 requests for information to listed nursing schools.
The site is designed to be very easy to use and focused on a single goal - connecting nursing school recruiters directly with high quality prospective nursing students. As more and more students turn to the Internet first when they research and make decisions about nursing school, having a web site isn't enough. "A simple search for 'nursing schools' on a search engine like Google returns 785,000 pages. The All Nursing Schools team works every day to make sure that your school doesn't get lost in the clutter."
The All Nursing Schools resource is available now at www.allnursingschools.com and is free to anyone considering their career options in nursing. For a limited time, All Nursing Schools is offering free trials on Featured School listings for schools who want to experience how easy it is to get great results, before they buy.
